From geodetic imaging of seismic and aseismic fault slip to dynamic modeling of the seismic cycle

JP Avouac - Annual Review of Earth and Planetary Sciences, 2015 - annualreviews.org
Understanding the partitioning of seismic and aseismic fault slip is central to seismotectonics
as it ultimately determines the seismic potential of faults. Thanks to advances in tectonic …

A geodetic plate motion and Global Strain Rate Model

C Kreemer, G Blewitt, EC Klein - Geochemistry, Geophysics …, 2014 - Wiley Online Library
We present a new global model of plate motions and strain rates in plate boundary zones
constrained by horizontal geodetic velocities. This Global Strain Rate Model (GSRM v. 2.1) …

Invited review paper: Fault creep caused by subduction of rough seafloor relief

K Wang, SL Bilek - Tectonophysics, 2014 - Elsevier
Among the wide range of thermal, petrologic, hydrological, and structural factors that
potentially affect subduction earthquakes, the roughness of the subducting seafloor is …

Slip rate deficit and earthquake potential on shallow megathrusts

EO Lindsey, R Mallick, JA Hubbard, KE Bradley… - Nature …, 2021 - nature.com
Most destructive tsunamis are caused by seismic slip on the shallow part of offshore
megathrusts. The likelihood of this behaviour is partly determined by the interseismic slip …

Towards inferring earthquake patterns from geodetic observations of interseismic coupling

Y Kaneko, JP Avouac, N Lapusta - Nature Geoscience, 2010 - nature.com
Ultimately, seismotectonic studies seek to provide ways of assessing the timing, magnitude
and spatial extent of future earthquakes. Ample observations document the spatial variability …
